Bridge:
A[D]nd [D/C#] in e[Bm]very si[A7/C#]tuation He has p[G]roved His love t[D/F#]o me
When I [Bm]lack the under[Esus]standi[E]ng, He [Em9]gives more grace to[A13sus] me[A13]
Chorus 2:
Jesus is faithful and true
Notes:
The Em9 and A13sus and A13 are very droning chords. He also slips in a Gmaj7 sometimes on the chorus
If the Em9 and A13's are tough for you just sub an Em and A7 for those. With the A#dim just play an A7 chord
and add the 1st fret of the 5th string.
When moving from the A13sus to the A13 he hammers slightly from the 2nd string 3rd fret to the 5th.
These droning string chords really add to the=at SCC sound. The D sue4 to Dsus2 thing is very James Taylor
like. Take a D chord and hammer on the 1st string 3rd fret, pull off and then open 1st string for the Dsus2
\and back on to the 2nd fret for the regular D chord.
